Distance is defined as the amount of space between to points. To say that Omaha PD is far from solving this case isn't exactly fair because we, at this point, don't know how long it will be until it is solved. It is however, pretty safe to assume that currently, they aren't exactly close. No one knew it would be years until any arrests would be made and even then it's only a matter of perception. What makes something far, or a great distance? Is Alberta far from Omaha? Are we far from any real suspects appearing on Omaha PD's radar? Point A is no longer visible in the rear view and point B doesn't even exist yet... Between two points,

Garcia sailed out of the troubled waters of upstate New York and is now looking to dock at Creighton University's pathology program. Fast forward a few months in and the water is feeling just fine. Sadly this won't be true for long. Smooth sailing is only referred to as such, until it isn't. The iceberg destined to sink this ship goes by the name of Dr. Bewtra and she's known for being relentless and colder than most. There isn't a plausible scenario that exists in which Dr. Bewtra and Dr. Garcia got along. It was a mutual no love lost scenario for the ages. At the end of the day there was just not enough hope to keep Garcia's career afloat and he seemed dead set on going down with the ship.

Sometimes it seems as though OPD is on top of every last hint, lead, clue, tip, etc. At other times it seems as though they decide not to look into what, at first glance, could be an actual lead. A tip from a local bar patron sparks a thorough follow up, while a local journalist/ true crime enthusiast is all but ignored. Will we finally track down the Russian Dr. we've been searching for?
